Lady Barker in New Zealand

Mary-Anne Barker, Amberley Ember

Synopsis

***NEW ZEALAND’S LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE*** 
Two New Zealand Classics—now available with an introduction by Amberley Ember. 
The year is 1865. 34-year-old Annie, freshly married, sets sail for New Zealand where she will serve as a helpmeet for her second husband, Fred. They live in Christchurch until they can build their house in the sheep-farming Canterbury High Country. Soon, Lady Annie Barker is tending to dogs and chickens, learning how to boil potatoes and galloping side-saddle on her horse through the fresh, miasma-free air. Just when the newlyweds begin to feel settled, they are caught in a great snowstorm, and swindled in a land deal. 
This is two books in one: Station Life in New Zealand (1870) and Station Amusements (1873).
